Looks like his account is dark as of yday. If there were any doubts of him being a scammer, they're gone now.

SEND THE MOUNTIES!!!

I can't believe this selfish prick. He owns to blades that mine BTC constantly, yet scams. Pathetic. Karma will catch up.

I already contacted the Winnipeg fraud police department.
Waiting for their reply, which (as stated on the website) could take a few days.

Well with a nick like initforthemoney what would you expect? You might as well send it to someone who claims to be a "pirate 200 years too late". Sorry for your loss OP.

His nick only raised a little question mark for me because a lot of people are in Bitcoins for the money.

including you?

Thats why all these weeds will die out as Bitcoin evolves.

I do enjoy the benefits of being in Bitcoins since 2011.
And I care about the Bitcoin network, by not calculating my ROI every minute.
I hope the weed will not die out, it's a main attraction here in Amsterdam Tongue

And about Bitcoin weed, look in the mirror!

This was AFTER you already sent a stranger with only two weeks on bitcointalk $1500! You gotta use escrow!

I know, and I have been using escrow before, so I should have known better.
I was still in vacation mode, not very handy when seeing a too good to be true offer.

what the hell is vacation mode and all that crap? what is it overthere?

Are you living on the same planet called earth?

You make it sound like taking vacation = IQ lowered by 100.

I guess you never take a vacation, you sure need one.

If he stops signing into that account, you'll know it was a scam. No need to keep waiting for the package Sad

Listen Jason,

I can only conclude that you haven't sent it yet, still in one of your previous messages you said you sent it by Canadian Post.

So for me there is no reason to remove the scam accusation.

I am going to leave my scam accusation on Bitcointalk, until you supply me with a track & trace number. Then I will update my message, stating that I got a track & trace number.

After I have received the package, inspected it and the blade is mining I will remove my accusation.

sorry man i hope it wasnt a big loss this guy definitely isnt sending anything Sad
